The Second Screen Challenge

For years, broadcasters and marketers have tried to harness the power of the “second screen” — encouraging viewers to use their phones or tablets alongside TV content. Yet this approach often divides attention, reduces immersion, and risks losing the viewer entirely. Qapture offers a smarter way: engage viewers interactively without ever leaving the primary TV screen.

Scan-Based Interaction Keeps Eyes on the Prize

Qapture’s marker technology lets viewers take real-time action directly from the TV screen. Whether it’s shopping, voting, or accessing exclusive content, the scan happens right where the story unfolds, preserving immersion and emotional impact. No toggling between devices means less distraction and more meaningful engagement.

The Best of Both Worlds: Immersion + Interaction

This unique blend of linear viewing with interactive technology reinvents the TV experience. Viewers stay connected to the narrative while simultaneously participating — creating a richer, more memorable experience for audiences and brands alike.

Measurable, Frictionless Engagement

Unlike social media hashtags or QR codes on print, Qapture markers are embedded into the video feed itself — designed for seamless scanning and immediate response. This leads to higher conversion rates and more accurate data about viewer behavior, enabling broadcasters to optimize content and campaigns in real time.

Enhancing Advertiser and Broadcaster Value

By eliminating the need for a second screen, Qapture maximizes ad impact and viewer retention. Advertisers can deploy interactive campaigns that complement the broadcast content without risking viewer drop-off. Broadcasters gain new insights into engagement and can tailor their programming accordingly.

Future-Proofing Broadcast Content

As smart TVs and connected devices proliferate, the line between traditional and digital media blurs. Qapture’s approach ensures broadcasters can stay ahead of the curve, offering viewers an immersive yet interactive experience that meets modern expectations.
